Audi announces R8 GT pricing: $196,800, only 333 going to be built wordlwide, 99 to US

Good news, the Audi R8 GT is coming to the US. The bad news? Only 99 are coming and at over $196,800 a pop. The car has the V10 5.2 FSI it shares with the Gallardo but in a higher state of tune of 560 horsepower vs. the regular V10 R8's. It is 180 pounds lighter thanks to the various lightweight parts. It is all wheel drive not rear wheel drive as some speculated and seems to be R-tronic only. Yes, we want one.

The R8 styling is newer/fresher. Plus, Ironman all of a sudden has people thinking the R8 is an exotic and not just a parts bin Gallardo. Still, sweet ride and cool they are doing essentially a superleggera for the R8.

What people do to get a boost in Google rankings is post on forums with their keyword anchor test, in this case Gucci shoes, and then put a link in their profile to their site for the keyword. That way Google indexes it and it looks like a link for that keyword and Google gives it priority.
